When i was a kid, I specialized in sport at a pretty young age. Once I began playing football, I loved the sport and often played multiple seasons per year (summer and fall). Even though I ended up playing 16 seasons in my career, one aspect of my game wasn’t properly developed until near the end of my career - that was my speed.
For all the seasons I played, and drills I ran as a football player, I was never taught to run faster. It wasn’t until I reached the University level that our team employed a speed coach (aka track coach). Until that point, if I had gotten faster, it could only be attributed to general growth and development, as I also didn’t begin training consistently until university as well. After we began using this coach as a team, I spent two years training with him Continue Reading

When it comes to being a strength coach, the training (in person) is really only one aspect of the job. There are countless tasks and responsibilities that creep into your job profile. The difficult thing is staying sharp with all of these duties. One of the areas I've seen coaches struggle is in the software side. Between program design, data collection/analysis and visualizations, there's a lot to stay on top of. We're constantly reading the latest research, training/coaching theory and even leadership books, but learning the software side of things seems to always take a backseat (like web development for me). For that reason, I'm sharing a cool resource for software tools! Strength Coach Tutorials A good friend of mine, and strength coach, Dave Scott-McDowell has been creating content Continue Reading

In most sports, if you don't have speed, you're at a serious disadvantage. Sure you can make up for it with skill in some cases, but you're making it really hard for yourself.
I haven't always put so much emphasis on speed training, but I do now.

DISCOVERING SPEED
Having never run track in high school, it wasn't until playing at the University level that I received any technical speed training. Luckily, our team employed a track coach to teach fundamentals to our team in the off season. Although that set up didn't exactly lend itself to great performance (limited sessions Continue Reading

READING IS FUN-DAMENTAL.
I can still remember the old NBA commercials, repeated throughout my youth. They must have hit home because I truly believe you learn something from reading, no matter what it is. Obviously most non-fiction has information it's trying to present and fiction tries to tell a story. No matter what, you'll take away a piece of information, a new word or a better understanding of the world.
My brother and I are big fans of reading. In fact, Cory, myself and Frank share a library of books. That's something I highly suggest if you're really into reading. Teaming up with someone else will allow you access to a larger selection of titles and save you some money. Of course, visiting your local library will do the same thing. The other benefit to Continue Reading

What if I told you there was a way to fight disease, rebuild your immune system and improve longevity, and that it was FREE. There is, by activating Autophagy through fasting.
WHAT IS AUTOPHAGY
Autophagy is the process by which our body, eats or recycles itself during times of low energy. I know “eating itself” sounds bad, but it actually eats dead, diseased and damaged cells. Think of it like a really good spring cleaning, but on a cellular level. It's like burning soot out of your chimney or thawing the ice from inside your freezer. It's a system put in place to optimize the body and continue to run smoothly.
How is Autophagy activated?
If we go back to the fridge metaphor, or even the chimney, the problems arrive because we can keep burning or freezing things without ever Continue Reading
